When one wishes to purchase the best, most reliable firearm on the market, one purchases an Heckler and Koch. With exception to maybe a Sig, the rest are just pop guns. Purchasing and receiving this HK USP through BudsGunShop.com was a breeze! Fast and seamless are the best words to describe my purchase experience. While everyone else was out of stock, you had exactly what I wanted. Thank you!

Awesome firearm! The only negative about this is pistol is the de-cocker is a little hard to use sometimes. If your on the fence, buy it! I have wanted one for a long time, and now I do. Don't you?

Absolutely an incredible firearm. My favorite pistol of all time. Very accurate and perfectly reliable. I've shot thousands of rounds through my USP's and not a single hiccup. No issues whatsoever. When the going gets tough, this is my go-to sidearm.

My favorite of all time. Never an issue, no worries, absolute confidence in this pistol. Accuracy is amazing. Reliability is perfect. When things get very bad, this is my go to pistol.

Less recoil and more accurate than my Sig 226. No failures in 1st 100 rounds. First shot center of bullseye at 50 ft. Groups of less than 2" with plain Vanilla white box Winchester.

This gun is absolutely phenomenal! Ive wanted since i was a little kid, and finally got a brand new one for way less than the retsil price of $1000. Second order from buds and once again extremely fast shipping (might be due to living 50 miles away from their warehouse) even with all snow we just got. I just bought another gun from buds yesterday and im sure i will have the same expierience with this glock 23 as with my hk usp and ar15. Thanks for your extremely low prices and amazingly fast shipping. I will be purchasing more and more guns from buds as time goes on!

First off, Buds was great. Product received at my FFL within a week. This is my first purchase with Buds and I will definitely order from them again. The handgun is great too, first H&K I've owned and really glad I got this one. I was debating on this and the USP Compact but at the time this USP FS was over $200 cheaper than my brick and mortar store so I went with the full size. This is a tad heavy when fully loaded for a concealed carry depending on your setup. If you go with an actual gun belt and good holster then you're golden. I went with a Crossbreed belt and holster and it is a great setup. I almost always leave things stock as they tend to look better that way but I bought a Hogue rubber grip for this is it looks great. It also makes the grip much better for shooters with medium to large sized hands. This thing shoots like a gem also. Recoil isn't bad at all and I haven't had any FTE or jams so far. The firearms is NIB with two 13 round magazines, which don't have the extended pinky rest as some reviews state, lock, spent test cartridge, manuals, and safety lock key. All in all, this is a great gun if you're willing to spend the money.

Ordered my USP 40 from Bud's to have shipped to Louisiana. Easy transaction all the way around. Next purchase I make will probably be from Bud's.

Ordered my HK USP 40 on a Tuesday and it was at my FFL on Thursday. Great service from Bud's and a great price for an HK. The gun arrived in perfect condition. The double action trigger pull is long but still smooth, the single action is as smooth as butter. Put 250 rounds through it a week after I got it with no issues whatsoever. Take down and cleaning is as easy as it gets. I put a couple different brands through the gun and it ate it all up no problem with great accuracy. If you've been thinking about getting a USP go and rent one, you will love it. Thanks Bud's for a great gun and the painless transaction.

Amazing weapon and well worth the money. Gun came in perfect, factory new condition and functioned flawlessly right out the box (I did clean the gun before taking it to the range). If you are considering purchasing this gun, but are intimidated by the price tag, don't be. It's an investment in a weapon system that you can count on when you need it. Also, Bud's was very prompt with preparing and shipping my order. I will be returning to Bud's for future firearms needs.

I don't know how you can add any more good things to the exceedingly long list of achievements of the H&K USP... the only thing that is left is personal impressions. And my impression is that I would trust my life to this gun in the harshest of conditions under the most austere abuse I could throw at it. While not nearly as famous as it's slightly larger brother the USP 45, the USP 40 yet carries with it all of the same flawless engineering, beautiful aesthetics, seamless and fluid ergonomics, and awe-inspiring reliability as its .45 ACP counterpart. If you only want or need to own one polymer pistol in .40 S&W, save up for a couple of months and spend the extra money, because this is hands down the gun you want to have. Recoil is almost exactly comparable to a Glock 22 (which is in fact almost the exact same size as the USP 40, except the USP's grip is ever-so-slightly shorter due to the -2 magazine capacity), however the USP's grip is such that it truly does feel like an organic extenstion to your own hands, and thus, at least in my opinion, making an average shooter a good shooter (as was the case with me, haha). The grip on the USP 40 is average size and would accomodate easily almost every hand size from quite small to very large. I've fired hundreds of rounds of both the best and worst ammo through this gun, and not once amongst 800+ rounds have I had so much as one FTF, let alone a jam or a stovepipe. The USP is as solid a combat pistol as a civilian is likely to be able to buy, but it is also very gentle in the hand and immensely forgiving. When you see this gun for the first time, the thing that will occur to you immediately is how perfectly made it is. Everything is tight and to exacting specifications. The gun comes with standard white three-dot sights, which are pretty nice, but I highly recommend going to MidwayUSA and shelling out an extra $100.00 or so to get either TruGlo or Trijicon tritium three-dot night sights. Don't let anyone fool you, you CAN install night sights on your own if you have patience, a vice (PADDED), a screwdriver, a hammer, some oil, a can of WD40, a deft touch, and PATIENCE. Both front and rear sights can simply be tapped out, and the new ones filed down ever so slightly, oiled, and then tapped gently into place. While obviously a full-size gun, the USP is easily concealable even under nothing more than a long shirt by an average size person with a good concealment holster like Galco's Concealable Belt Holster (http://www.midwayusa.com/viewProduct/default.aspx?productNu-
mber=229638). Though keep in mind, after many hours you WILL feel the weight. Obviously there are better options for CCW in practice, but don't let that fact make you think that you cannot conceal a USP. Single action firing feels PRISTINE... but full double action trigger pull is a bit stiff and long, but by no means unmanagable or worse than any other DA/SA gun. Just practice a bit. A purposeful squeeze and your first double-action shot will be almost as accurate as any other. You can carry this gun cocked and locked with the safety on if you desire (which I do not), and the thumb safety does double as a solid and safe decocker. The ambidextrous magazine release lever makes for very rapid reloads without ever having to take your gun, or even your eyes, off of the target. The slide release is a little bit too far forward to use seamlessly or quickly with the thumb of your right hand, but you may quickly come into the habit of keeping your firing grip firmly in place with your right hand and using both the magazine release and slide release with the thumb of your left hand. (I guess reverse all of that if you're left handed). I will say in conclusion that there are also many accessorizations you can apply to the USP, such as a threaded tactical barrel, tactical sights, a Jet Funnel grip extension/magazine well to allow you to use the 16-round magazines, etc, etc... the list goes on and on. The ONLY drawback to a USP is the integrated rail which will not allow you to directly use attachments that have the industry standard picatinny or Glock-style rail, but a few companies make the adapter which attaches with an allen wrench which will allow you to add a Streamlight or almost any other type of light/laser combo. But seriously, you don't NEED a laser... you have an H&K USP!!

I purchased the H&K USP 40 after speaking with friends and doing a search online. I have to admit --- this gun is simply beautiful. I know about it's reputation and I want to fire it - but at the same time - I want to keep it in pristine condition. In other words, I want to hold onto it for many years to come and give it to my son (who is 6 years old) as a present one day - in it's original NIB state. I really appreciate having this gun in my house. I hope the team that made it realize there are people like me who appreciate great things in life!

I ordered one of these from Buds in August 2009. I received it exactly when they said I would (about a week) and of course the price was unbeatable. I checked everywhere, all over the internet and locally for over a month trying to get a better buy than Bud's, but there is just no way to beat their price! Shipping is to a local dealer (most of which are already in Bud's database). Just remember, the price shown is for cash only. All others are about 3% higher so mine was $25.00 more than I expected, but still way cheaper than ANYONE else and they did tell me up front. You just can't beat Bud's. They will have my business from now on.

This is the Cadillac of semi-auto handguns. It's more accurate than any .40 cal that I've tried, the felt recoil is less, it can take some abuse if the going gets tough, the trigger is excellent, the sights can be upgraded to adjustable night sights for perfection. Thanks Buds for the best products at unbeatable prices.

So far I've enjoyed shooting this pistol. The trigger is pretty good and the recoil is managable. The factory fixed sights are no good for accurate shooting so I'm having adjustable three-dot sights installed. Great piece!!
